Pursuant to the indentures governing the respective debentures, Vishay has the right to pay the conversion value or purchase price for the debentures in cash, Vishay common stock, or a combination of both.

If debentures are tendered for repurchase, Vishay will pay the repurchase price in cash, and if debentures are submitted for conversion, Vishay will value the shares issuable upon conversion and will pay in cash an amount equal to the principal amount of the converted debentures and will issue shares in respect of the conversion value in excess of the principal amount.

Vishay will consider the debentures to be "net share settlement debt." Accordingly, the debentures will be included in the diluted earnings per share computation using the "treasury stock method" (similar to options) rather than the "if converted method" otherwise required for convertible debt. Under the "treasury stock method," Vishay will calculate the number of shares issuable under the terms of the debentures based on the average market price of Vishay common stock during the period, and include that number in the total diluted shares figure for the period.

The following estimates of shares expected to be used in the calculation of diluted EPS consider the number of the Company's shares currently outstanding and the Company's stock options and convertible or exchangeable securities currently outstanding and their exercise and conversion features currently in effect.  Changes in these parameters could have a material impact on the calculation of diluted EPS.

The following estimates of shares expected to be used in the calculation of diluted EPS should be read in conjunction with the information on earnings per share in the Company's filings on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K.  These estimates are unaudited and are not necessarily indicative of the shares used in the diluted EPS computation for any prior period.  The estimates below are not necessarily indicative of the shares to be used in the quarterly diluted EPS computation for any period subsequent to the second fiscal quarter of 2013.  The Company assumes no duty to revise these estimates as a result of changes in the parameters on which they are based or any changes in accounting principles.  Also, the presentation is not intended as a forecast of EPS values or share prices of the Company's common stock for any period.

For the second fiscal quarter of 2013:

·	The Company has approximately 144 million shares issued and outstanding, including shares of common stock and class B common stock.

·	The number of shares included in diluted EPS related to options and similar instruments does not vary significantly and is generally less than 1 million incremental shares.

·	The Company's exchangeable unsecured notes due 2102 are dilutive at quarterly earnings levels in excess of approximately $2 million.  The exchangeable unsecured notes are exchangeable for approximately 6 million shares.  Quarterly interest, net of tax, is approximately $0.1 million.

The Company's Convertible Senior Debentures due 2040 are convertible at a conversion price of $13.88 per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to 72.0331 shares per $1,000 principal amount.  There is $275 million principal amount of the debentures outstanding. The number of shares of common stock that Vishay will include in its diluted earnings per share computation, assuming an average market price for Vishay common stock in excess of the conversion price, will be determined in accordance with the following formula:

S = [$275,000,000 / $1000] * [(P - $13.88) * 72.0331] / P

where

S = the number of shares to be included in diluted EPS, and
P = the average market price of Vishay common stock for the quarter.

If the average market price is less than $13.88, no shares will be included in the diluted earnings per share computation.

·

The Company's Convertible Senior Debentures due 2041 are convertible at a conversion price of $19.02 per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to 52.5659 shares per $1,000 principal amount.  There is $150 million principal amount of the debentures outstanding. The number of shares of common stock that Vishay will include in its diluted earnings per share computation, assuming an average market price for Vishay common stock in excess of the conversion price, will be determined in accordance with the following formula:

S = [$150,000,000 / $1000] * [(P - $19.02) * 52.5659] / P

where

S = the number of shares to be included in diluted EPS, and
P = the average market price of Vishay common stock for the quarter.

If the average market price is less than $19.02, no shares will be included in the diluted earnings per share computation.

·

The Company's Convertible Senior Debentures due 2042 are convertible at a conversion price of $11.81 per $1,000 principal amount, equivalent to 84.6937 shares per $1,000 principal amount.  There is $150 million principal amount of the debentures outstanding. The number of shares of common stock that Vishay will include in its diluted earnings per share computation, assuming an average market price for Vishay common stock in excess of the conversion price, will be determined in accordance with the following formula:

S = [$150,000,000 / $1000] * [(P - $11.81) * 84.6937] / P

where

S = the number of shares to be included in diluted EPS, and
P = the average market price of Vishay common stock for the quarter.

If the average market price is less than $11.81, no shares will be included in the diluted earnings per share computation.

Accordingly, the following table summarizes the approximate number of shares to be included in the denominator of the diluted EPS calculation assuming net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders greater than $2 million for various average stock prices (number of shares in millions):

Revenues for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2013 were $554.3 million, compared to $538.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012.  The net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2013 were $28.9 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to $33.8 million, or $0.21 per diluted share for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2013 include one-time tax benefits due to the retroactive enactment of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, signed into law on January 2, 2013.  Items affecting comparability for the periods presented are summarized on the attached reconciliation schedule.  Adjusted net earnings per diluted share, which exclude these items, were $0.18 and $0.21 for the fiscal quarters ended March 30, 2013 and March 31, 2012, respectively.

Commenting on the results for the first quarter 2013, Dr. Gerald Paul, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "In the first quarter Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. benefited from better economic conditions as well as from improved efficiencies and some temporary measures to save fixed costs. In the course of the quarter Vishay experienced a broad based recovery with particular strength of the automotive and industrial end markets. End demand at distribution is recovering: point of sale, the sales of Vishay products by its distributors to end customers, increased 8% quarter over quarter while inventories of Vishay products at its distributors decreased by 7%."

Dr. Gerald Paul continued, "While controlling our fixed costs we continue to pursue our Growth Plan by expanding manufacturing capacities in strategic product lines, by increasing our R&D and design-in efforts, by expanding our sales presence in Asia, and by acquiring specialty businesses."

Commenting on the recent signing of the definitive purchase agreement to acquire MCB Industrie, S.A., a manufacturer of specialty resistors for professional market segments, Marc Zandman, Vishay's Executive Chairman and Chief Business Development Officer, stated, "The planned acquisition of MCB Industrie S.A. will substantially expand and strengthen our resistors portfolio, both in motion sensors for avionics, military, and space applications and in power resistors for energy distribution, traction, and industrial market sectors. It will significantly enhance the existing resistors business of our successful Vishay Sfernice division. Consistent with the goals of our Growth Plan, it will supplement intensified internal growth and increase market share."

Commenting on the outlook for the second quarter 2013 Dr. Paul stated, "Based on current order trends, we guide for revenues of $570 to $610 million at similar gross margin percent and slightly improved operating margin percent compared to the first quarter of 2013."

This press release includes certain financial measures which are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share, which are considered "non-GAAP financial measures" under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules. These non-GAAP measures supplement our GAAP measures of performance and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. Non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share do not have uniform definitions. These measures, as calculated by Vishay, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management believes that adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per diluted share these measures are meaningful to investors because they provide insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company. Reconciling items to arrive at adjusted net earnings represent significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding to the Company's intrinsic operations. These reconciling items are indicated on the accompanying reconciliation schedule and are more fully described in the Company's financial statements presented in its annual report on Form 10-K and its quarterly reports presented on Forms 10-Q.
